2) Conclusion of the Contract
2.1 The content displayed in the Licensor’s online shop does not constitute a binding offer on the part of the Licensor, but is merely a description which allows the Licensee to submit a binding offer.

In doing so, after having placed the selected content in the virtual basket and passed through the ordering process, and by clicking the button finalizing the order process, the Licensee submits a legally binding offer of contract with regard to the content contained in the virtual basket. The Licensee may also submit his offer to the Licensor by e-mail.

- by transferring a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in written form (fax or e-mail), insofar as receipt of order confirmation by the Licensee is decisive, or

- by requesting the Licensee to pay after placing his order.
The contract shall be concluded at the time when one of the aforementioned alternatives firstly occurs.
